If all you need is three or four records for your intranet, the best
solution is to fix that and forward everything else. The way you do that is,
instead of creating a zone for the domain then adding the host records for
each host you need to resolve in the intranet or internet, delete the
example.com zone, then add Forward lookup zones with the FQDN of the
intranet hosts e.g. "host1.example.com", "host2.example.com" and
"host3.example.com" then add a new host to each leaving the name field blank
with the IP of the intranet site. All other hosts in example.com would be
forwarded.
